Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Quentin! The early 996 windscreen seals suffered from this, and Porsche did a kit to fix it. However, I don't think it would work on a 2004 car, as the seal is different. If it was me, I would want to get it sorted - it is never a good idea to let water pool. I can only suggest getting a new seal fitted. The part isn't expensive (about £30), and the labour will probably cost more.
